A week ago it was reported that defensive end D.J. Marshall of Mesquite, Texas had landed his first verbal offer, but now has the paper to prove it exists. He is excited to learn more about the Big Ten program that has stepped up and offered. If the parade of coaches through his school is any indication then Marshall can expect more offers to come his way soon.

Marshall received his official offer from Minnesota in the mail on Tuesday. He thinks he could receive his next offer as soon as today. Some of the other schools showing interest include Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Purdue, Texas, Texas A&M and UTEP.
